Angie is saving money to buy a new tennis racket that costs $138. She has saved $46 so far. If Angie saves $14 each week, what is the least number of weeks, w, that she will have to save to buy the racket? Write an inequality to describe the situation. Use the inequality to solve the problem.

Answer :

46 + 14w > = 138.....w represents number of weeks
14w > = 138 - 46
14w > = 92
w > = 92/14
w > = 6.57....the least number of weeks would be 7

138=46+14w -46 -46 92=14w 92÷14= 6.5714285714 (round up) W=7 weeks Hope that helped
